So many tracks on this record have an incredibly high "wow" factor, with instrumentation and unidentifiable sounds that are unlike just about anything I have ever heard. Yet, everything comes together in a remarkably cohesive product. The vocal arrangements are simply staggering, with the interplay between the singers moving with stunning speed, erudition and wit. Each song is a fine tuned piece of pop alchemy. From 'Spilling Guts' to 'Golden Gal' to 'Recycling' and everything in between, Painting With brings one triumph after another. It is clear that Avey Tare, Panda Bear and Geologist have honed in something game changing in pop music. In many ways, the fact that Painting With will likely be the most accessible Animal Collective album to date amplifies its potential impact, as the uniqueness of the record will reach even more listeners. This is a lush, intellectual and brilliant collection, constantly teeming with sounds, innovations and ideas. Topping Merriweather Post Pavilion once seemed like a nigh impossible task, but if any album could do it and enter the pop canon as Animal Collective's masterpiece, it would be Painting With.
that's a pasta, but the album is a 9/10 anyway

this post. this fucking post.
Spilling Guts is 100% filler and the EDM style of Natural Selection is really unnapealing, it clashes with the hocketing and Panda's singing style really horribly to me. Hook isn't that good either.
Other than that I like every track.

The end of Spilling Guts is one of the best parts of the album, dude.

Shre, but that's the only good part about it.
